Obama Will Win - Vote Early!

Early voting is not a luxury only afforded to the senior
citizens and disabled. Avoiding an hour
or more long lines during the General Election is an adequate reason to Vote
Early. Every State may have a different
rule. For example, Ohio allows you to
Vote Early for 35 days.

Sure, you may have participated in the Final Sunday Voting
Church Event in the past. Every since
President Obama became President, Republicans have worked to change those
voting tactics. Don’t let that deter you
from voting.

The convenience of voting in your own home and not paying
postage to return your ballot to the Board of Election cannot be ignored. Just imagine, you tell the Board of Election
that you want to vote early. The Board
of Election then sends you an official ballot.
You vote. Put the ballot in a
postage paid envelope and mail it.
Voila, you’re done.

Federal laws prohibit anyone from tampering with the
mail. The mailman delivers your mail
thru rain, snow, and gloom of night. A
ballot in an enclosed envelope does not give away information on who you voted
for. The Board of Election does not know
if you’ve voted for a Democrat or a Republican and their integrity has to be
trusted here. If you don’t feel
comfortable mailing in your ballot, you can always waste your time and gas by
driving to the Board of Election and personally handing to an employee. I say, however, keep it simple and use the self
addressed postage paid envelope and mail the ballot to the Board of Election.

Rachel Maddow’s show points out the clear advantages for our
President if you vote early. Please
register and then vote since you may live in a critical Swing State where every vote is needed. Click on
